Support Your Dyslexic Child with Confidence at Home

For parents of children with dyslexia, the journey can often feel like a maze filled with confusing advice, trial-and-error programs, and constant worry over how to help at home. With so many options and so few clear answers, it’s easy to feel lost.

But what if, instead of stress and uncertainty, you could start building real understanding, practical tools, and visible progress?

That’s exactly what the Davis® Parent Power – Dyslexia Support Course is designed to offer.

Dyslexia Is Not a Deficit, It’s a Different Way of Thinking

One of the first and most powerful lessons in the Parent Power course is this:

Dyslexia is not a problem to fix. Instead, it’s a different, creative way of thinking that brings unique strengths to the table.

Through this lens, the course helps parents reframe dyslexia not as something that holds their child back, but as something that highlights their child’s potential.

These strengths often include:

🟣 Big-picture thinking
🟣 Visual-spatial problem-solving
🟣 Inventive, outside-the-box ideas
🟣 High emotional sensitivity and empathy

Once this shift in perspective happens, parents can stop trying to force their child to fit into rigid systems. Instead, they begin creating an environment that works for their child’s natural learning style.

Practical Tools for Real-Life Support

So, how does the course actually help families day to day?

Unlike other programs that offer broad theories or step-by-step systems that only work in ideal conditions, the Davis® Parent Power Course is hands-on, flexible, and immediately useful.

More importantly, parents don’t just learn how to help their child; they gain tools that support their own growth and emotional regulation as well.

These tools include:

🔹 Orientation Tools – to help a child find focus and reduce disorientation
🔹 Dial & Release Tools – to manage emotional overwhelm and regain calm
🔹 Clay Modeling – to help children master confusing trigger words by building their meaning physically

Not only that, these tools require no fancy equipment or outside specialists. They’re meant for the real world, whether that’s the kitchen table, the living room floor, or wherever learning happens naturally at home.

Why This Approach Feels Different

Many families who take this course say the same thing:

“It looked a bit different from everything else we’d tried, and this time, it actually worked.”

In comparison to other methods that felt too complicated or quickly forgotten, this approach gave parents simple, lasting tools they could use every day.

As one parent reflected:

“Everything used to feel hard. But now, we have tools that help us both stay calm and focused. It’s not perfect, but it’s finally working.”

 – and fungLearning Around the Clay Table

One of the most memorable and enjoyable parts of the Davis approach is clay modeling.

In this process, parents and children sit down together and sculpt the meanings of tricky words, especially abstract words that don’t naturally form mental pictures. For example:
saw and saw

which and witch
for and four

bat and bat 
germinate, estuary

As the clay takes shape, words become clear. In turn, learning becomes fun and engaging again. Many families even report that clay work becomes a treasured part of their home routine.

“We even set up a ‘clay table’ at home. It made learning together normal again and fun.”

Strengthening the Parent-Child Connection

One of the most surprising benefits of the course?

It teaches parents how to support their child without adding stress on either side.

With the help of co-regulation tools, parents learn how to stay grounded and present even in challenging moments. This allows them to respond calmly instead of reacting out of frustration or fear.

As a result, children feel safer, more seen, and more supported. Over time, this emotional safety opens the door to greater cooperation, stronger communication, and more confidence during learning moments.
